Those aren't my words, friend. Looks like maybe you typed your reply into what was originally where you quoted me?
I believe we are talking about two different things though? It appears you are talking about emotions vs me suggesting that training not only evaluates and enhances defensive skills, but also addresses the emotions involved.
To begin with addressing emotions, one might start with the mental exercise of "stopping the threat to me and mine" vs the thinking that it's harming or killing another human.
Good firearms self defense training does address the mental aspect of stopping the threat and the repercussions. While gun handling and tactics are often involved, it is not at all like marksmanship practice or hunting game.
